"This is a beautiful planet and not at all fragile. Earth can withstand significant volcanic eruptions, tectonic cataclysms, and ice ages. But this canny, intelligent, prolific, and extremely self-centered human creature had proven himself capable of more destruction of life than Mother Nature herself.... We've got to be stopped." ~Michael L. Fischer, "Our modern industrial economy takes a mountain covered with trees, lakes, running streams and transforms it into a mountain of junk, garbage, slime pits, and debris." ~Edward Abbey "When we heal the earth, we heal ourselves." ~David Orr "I am the earth. You are the earth. The Earth is dying. You and I are murderers." ~Ymber Delecto "I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?" ~Robert Redford, Yosemite National Park dedication, 1985 "Because we don't think about future generations, they will never forget us." ~Henrik Tikkanen "The packaging for a microwavable "microwave" dinner is programmed for a shelf life of maybe six months, a cook time of two minutes and a landfill dead-time of centuries." ~David Wann,Buzzworm, November 1990
